Antiseptic efficacy and plasma chlorhexidine levels following two different methods of application of 1% aqueous chlorhexidine gluconate for skin disinfection in preterm newborns: a randomized controlled trial. Many neonatal units have started using Chlorhexidine gluconate for neonatal skin antisepsis. However, there is in-vitro evidence of inhibition of neurite growth. The current study aimed to compare two methods of its local application, for the extent of systemic absorption and antiseptic efficacy. Parallel group, blinded, randomised trial, at a Level III, neonatal intensive care unit. Between December 2020 to July 2022, neonates from 28 to 34 weeks gestation, were randomized to local skin antisepsis by either- (a) 1% aqueous chlorhexidine (CHG aq) followed by cleansing off the residual

Cetylpyridinium chloride and chlorhexidine show antiviral activity against Influenza A virus and Respiratory Syncytial virus in vitro. The oral cavity is the site of entry and replication for many respiratory viruses. Furthermore, it is the source of droplets and aerosols that facilitate viral transmission. It is thought that appropriate oral hygiene that alters viral infectivity might reduce the spread of respiratory viruses and contribute to infection control. Here, we analyzed the antiviral activity of cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC), chlorhexidine (CHX), and three commercial CPC and CHX-containing mouthwash preparations against the Influenza A virus and the Respiratory syncytial virus. To do so the aforementioned compounds and preparations were incubated with the Influenza A virus

Povidone Iodine vs Chlorhexidine Gluconate in Alcohol for Preoperative Skin Antisepsis: A Randomized Clinical Trial. Preoperative skin antisepsis is an established procedure to prevent surgical site infections (SSIs). The choice of antiseptic agent, povidone iodine or chlorhexidine gluconate, remains debated. To determine whether povidone iodine in alcohol is noninferior to chlorhexidine follow-up was on July 1, 2020. Over 18 consecutive months, study sites were randomly assigned each month to either use povidone iodine or chlorhexidine gluconate, each formulated in alcohol. Disinfectants and skin application processes were standardized and followed published protocols. Primary outcome was SSI within 30 days after abdominal surgery and within 1 year after cardiac surgery, using

Bathing with 2% chlorhexidine gluconate versus routine care for preventing surgical site infections after pancreatic surgery: a single centre randomised controlled trial. To investigate whether bathing with 2% chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG) reduces the incidence of surgical site infection (SSI) in patients undergoing routine pancreatic surgery. A randomised controlled trial was conducted % chlorhexidine gluconate could potentially reduce the incidence of SSI for the patients scheduled to undergo pancreatic surgery which further well-designed clinical trials are warranted.

Effect of chlorhexidine, povidone-iodine, and hydrogen peroxide irrigation on pain and swelling after mandibular third molar surgery: randomized controlled trial. The objective of this study was to compare the effects of irrigation solutions containing chlorhexidine, povidone-iodine, or hydrogen peroxide on pain and swelling following mandibular third molar surgery. This prospective randomized controlled trial employed a single-blind design. Overall, 112 patients were randomized to four groups based on the antiseptic assigned for the intervention: control, chlorhexidine (CHX), povidone-iodine (PI), and hydrogen peroxide (HP). The patients were followed up on days 1, 3, 7, and 15 after surgery, and pain and swelling were assessed. Data were analysed using ANOVA and post hoc multiple comparison

The positive effects of preoperative chlorhexidine rinse to reduce postoperative pneumonia after kidney transplantation surgery. Postoperative pneumonia is one of the most observed hospital-acquired infections and increases the postoperative mortality rate. Further, it drives the healthcare systems under a severe financial burden. Preventing postoperative pneumonia is an incredibly challenging issue for clinicians. Since immunosuppression therapy, the patients who had kidney transplants are more vulnerable to postoperative infections. There is no data in the scientific literature focusing on the effects of preoperative oral care with chlorhexidine antiseptic solutions on postoperative pneumonia in kidney transplantation surgery cases. In the present research, we studied this topic

Incidence and risk factors for clinical omphalitis among neonates in Eastern Uganda using chlorhexidine gel for cord care: a community-cohort study. Omphalitis is a bacterial infection of the umbilicus and/or surrounding tissues, occurring primarily in the neonatal period. Whereas it is known to be a major route of localized and often systemic infection, studies describing incidence and risk factors remain scanty, especially in resource limited settings where the condition is thought to be common. We assessed the incidence and risk factors for omphalitis among neonates born to women who received a birth kit containing chlorhexidine for umbilical cord care after birth in Eastern Uganda. The BabyGel trial was registered in the Pan African Clinical Trial Registry -(PACTR202004705649428

Chlorhexidine vs Routine Foot Washing to Prevent Diabetic Foot Ulcers: A Randomized Clinical Trial.

To evaluate the effect of daily foot care using chlorhexidine wipes vs soap-and-water wipes for 1 year on the risk of developing new foot . Participants were randomly assigned 1:1 to receive either soap-and-water wipes (control group) or 2% chlorhexidine wipes (chlorhexidine group). Intention-to-treat data analysis was conducted from October 5, 2023, to April 24, 2024. Daily use of a 2% chlorhexidine wipe or a soap-and-water wipe on the feet for 1 year. Wipes were nearly identical in color, size, shape, thickness, feel, and scent. Both

Neonatal skin antisepsis with alcohol-based compared to aqueous 2% chlorhexidine, used in moderate preterm infants or extremely preterm infants after the first week of life, is safe and may be associated with a reduced incidence of catheter-related blood Skin antisepsis is one of the most important bundle measures to decrease central line-related bloodstream infections (CRBSIs). However , in the neonatal population, the use of alcoholic chlorhexidine is limited by the risk of skin lesions. We hypothesised that skin antisepsis with alcohol-based 2% chlorhexidine instead of aqueous 2% chlorhexidine could reduce the incidence of CRBSI without increasing skin complications. We conducted a double cohort study comparing two periods of 3 years, first using aqueous and second using alcohol-based
